Before using the unit

Read this before attempting any operations

The nominal temperature should be between 5°C and 35°C

(41°F and 95°F). The CD-RW recorder is more sensitive to

extremes of temperature than ordinary CD players.

Relative humidity should be 30 to 85 percent non-

condensing.

< As the unit may become warm during operation, always leave

sufficient space around the unit for ventilation.

< The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage as

printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt regarding

this matter, consult an electrician.

Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid

placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also

avoid locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat,

cold or moisture.

Do not place the unit on an amplifier/receiver.

Do not open the cabinet as this might result in damage to the

circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should get into

the unit, contact your dealer or service company.

When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always

pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord.

< To keep the laser pickup clean, do not touch it and always

close the disc tray.

< Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as

this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

< Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

DO NOT MOVE THE UNIT DURING PLAYBACK/RECORDING

During playback or recording, the disc rotates at high speed.

Do NOT lift or move the unit during playback or recording.

Doing so may damage the disc or the unit.

WHEN MOVING THIS UNIT

When changing the unit’s location or packing the unit for

moving, be sure to remove the disc. Moving this unit with the

disc loaded may result in damage to this unit.

ENGLISH

How to remove the disc How to hold the disc

Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side

uppermost. (Compact discs can be played or recorded only on

one side.)

To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the

center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by

the edges.

Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or

fluid, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals

will do irreparable damage to the disc’s plastic surface.

Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid dust

and scratches that could cause the laser pickup to “skip.”

< Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and

temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high

temperatures will warp the disc.

Do not play any disc that is warped, deformed or damaged.

Playing such discs may cause irreparable harm to the playing

mechanisms.

CD-R and CD-RW discs are more sensitive to the effects of

heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important

that they are not stored in a location where direct sunlight

will fall on them, and away from sources of heat such as

radiators or heat-generating electrical devices.

Printable CD-R and CD-RW discs aren’t recommended, as the

label side might be sticky and damage the unit.

< Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do

not use any protective coating spray.

< Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information

on the label side. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen,

as this may cause damage to the recorded side.

Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD

stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanism and

cause them to malfunction.

Do not use CDs with an irregular shape (octagonal, heart

shaped, business card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage

the unit:

If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a CDR/

CD-RW disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or

contact the disc manufacturer directly.

< Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface radially (from

the center hole outward towards the outer edge) with a soft,

dry cloth:

Please use CD, CD-R and CD-RW discs bearing the

“DIGITAL AUDIO” logo.

This unit CANNOT RECORD CD-R and CD-RW discs

designed for computer systems.

In this manual, although we refer to “CD-R” and CD-RW”

discs, we always mean “CD-R Digital Audio” and “CD-RW

Digital Audio”, even when this is not explicitly stated.

CD-R and CD-RW discs designed for computer systems and

properly recorded by a computer are playable, but this unit

cannot record, finalize nor erase them.

Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the condition of

the recording, some CD-R/CD-RW discs may not be playable.

< Copy-protected discs and other discs which do not conform

to the CD standard may not play back correctly in this player.

If you use such discs in this unit, TEAC Corporation and its

subsidiaries cannot be responsible for any consequences or

guarantee the quality of reproduction. If you experience

problems with such non-standard discs, you should contact

the producers of the disc.

About CD-R and CD-RW discs

CD-R discs can be recorded once only. Once they have been

used for recording, they cannot be erased or re-recorded.

However, if space is available on the disc (and the disc has not

been finalized), additional material can be recorded.

By contrast, a CD-RW disc can be used in much the same way

as a CD-R disc, but the last track or tracks recorded can be

erased, and the space on the disc can be re- used for other

recordings.

However, you should note that an audio CD created using a

CD-RW disc may not play back satisfactorily on every audio

CD player.

CD-R, by contrast, may be played satisfactorily on the majority

of audio CD players.

Finalizing

Although audio data may be written on a CD-R or CD-RW

disc, a standard CD player will not be able to play back the

audio until a final table of contents (TOC) has been written at

the start of the disc.

The process of writing this table of contents is known as

“finalizing”. Once this has been done, no further data can be

written to the disk.

Note that a CD-RW disc that has been finalized can be

“unfinalized”. This allows further tracks to be recorded to the

disc, provided that there is space on the disc.

Repeat, shuffle and programmed playback don’t work with

unfinalized (NO TOC) discs.

Recordable discs

In this manual, we use the term “recordable” disc to describe

a CD-R or CD-RW disc that has not been finalized, and has

enough space to record.

Remote Control Unit

Remove the battery compartment cover.

Insert two “AA” (R6, SUM-3) dry batteries. Make sure that the

batteries are inserted with their positive “+

” and negative

“_

” poles positioned correctly.

Close the cover.

Battery Replacement

If the distance required between the remote control unit and

main unit decreases, the batteries are exhausted. In this case

replace the batteries with new ones.

Precautions concerning batteries

Be sure to insert the batteries with correct positive “+” and

negative “_

” polarities.

Use batteries of the same type. Never use different types of

batteries together.

Rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries can be used.

Refer to the precautions on their labels.

When the remote control unit is not to be used for a long

time (more than a month), remove the batteries from the

remote control unit to prevent them from leaking. If they leak,

wipe away the liquid inside the battery compartment and

replace the batteries with new ones.

Do not heat or disassemble batteries and never dispose of old

batteries by throwing them in a fire.

The provided Remote Control Unit allows the unit to be

operated from a distance.

When operating the remote control unit, point it towards the

REMOTE SENSOR on the front panel of the unit.

Even if the remote control unit is operated within the effective

range, remote control operation may be impossible if there

are any obstacles between the unit and the remote control.

If the remote control unit is operated near other appliances

which generate infrared rays, or if other remote control

devices using infrared rays are used near the unit, it may

operate incorrectly. Conversely, the other appliances may

operate incorrectly.

Before Recording

Before you start recording, make sure that you understand

the following points:

< The unit requires Digital Audio CD-R or CD-RW media for

recording. Computer CD-R or CD-RW discs do not work with

this unit.

Once you have recorded on a CD-R disc, the data cannot be

erased from it.

< You can add tracks to an unfinalized recordable disc. Once

finalized, a CD-R disc is “fixed” and behaves in the same way

as a CD. Finalized CD-RW discs, however, can be unfinalized,

erased and re-recorded.

Due to the system restrictions of CD, a track cannot be less

than four seconds in length, and there can be a maximum of

99 tracks on an audio CD.

If the STOP button or PAUSE button is pressed within four

seconds from the beginning of a track, the unit continues to

record no signal and stops when the track’s length reaches

four seconds.

When the recording is finished, “PMA WRITE” blinks for a

few seconds, and the unit then goes into stop mode. Do not

apply shock or vibration to the unit during recording.

If the disc reaches the end during recording, the unit will start

a fade-out over a few seconds and stop recording.

< If the disc reaches the end of the 99th track during recording,

the unit stops.

< The recording time of a track may differ slightly from the

original one.

Serial Copy Management System

This unit is in compliance with the Serial Copy Management

System standard. This standard has been established to

restrict digital-to-digital copying to only the first generation.

The basic rules governing this system are as follows:

Rule 1

A digital recording is possible from a digital source such as a

CD, DAT or MD onto a recordable CD-R, CD-RW, MD or DAT

through a digital input connection. However, further digital

to- digital recording is prohibited for the second and later

generations.

Rule 2

When an analog source such as an analog disc or FM

broadcast is digitally recorded by using a CD-R, CD-RW, MD

or DAT, this recorded source can be digitally recorded on

another CD-R, CD-RW, MD or DAT. However, further digital

copying is prohibited.

In the stop mode, hold down the CLEAR button for more

than 2 seconds.

If the OPEN/CLOSE button or the POWER button is pressed,

< Unlike analog equipment, digital audio units produce

extremely unpleasant sounds when distorted, and there is no

“headroom” after the 0 mark. When you record digitally

from a commercially-produced CD, set the digital volume to 0

dB. This will maintain all the dynamic range of the source CD

without clipping. Only boost the signal if the source is

exceptionally quiet.

Automatic Track Division

TRACK (–60, –50, –40 or –30 dB)

When recording digitally, the unit will automatically insert a

track division in the recorded material when an increment

signal is detected.

When the digital source doesn’t contain increment signals, or

when recording analogically, the unit will automatically insert

a track division in the recorded material when sound level has

dropped below the increment level (–60, –50, –40 or –30dB)

for more than 3 seconds and then sound has re-started.

You can add track numbers by pressing the RECORD button

during recording.

The increment level is also used to trigger analog synchronous

recording (see next page).

“–30dB” takes a louder signal to trigger the start of the

analog synchronous recording or a track division. “–60dB”

means that a relatively quiet signal will trigger the start of the

analog synchronous recording or a track division. “–60dB” is

suitable for recording a noiseless source such as a CD.

MANUAL

The unit doesn’t divide tracks.

Use the RECORD button to divide tracks.

MANUAL is recommended for recording an analog source

such as a record.

AUTO TRACK may not work properly with analog sources

that contain low-level noises.

< The default setting is –60. When the POWER button or the

STANDBY/ON button is pressed, the setting is automatically

reset to –60.

(In case the INPUT SELECT is set to ANALOG, the default

setting is –50.)

The AUTO/MANUAL button doesn’t work during recording or

in the record pause mode.

ENGLISH

Synchronous recording means that recording will begin

automatically when a signal is received, and will stop when the

signal ends.

The conditions under which an input signal is used as the

trigger to start recording are:

when recording a CD digitally, a digital start signal is

detected, and audio is also detected

when recording an MD or DAT digitally, a digital start signal is

detected

the sound level has dropped below the increment level for

one second or more, and has then risen above the increment

level again

The conditions under which synchronized recording stops

are:

when recording digitally, a digital stop signal is detected

the sound level drops below the increment level for 5 seconds

To start synchronous recording

After step of page 16, press the SYNC 1/ALL button

and select SYNC 1 or SYNC ALL.

When the SYNC 1/ALL button is pressed once, the current

setting is displayed. Press the SYNC 1/ALL button repeatedly

to select any other setting.

SYNC ALL

Select this to record all the tracks.

SYNC 1

Select this to record only one track.

SYNC OFF

Select this when you don’t use this function.

The SYNC indicator lights when SYNC ALL or SYNC 1 is

selected.

Press the RECORD button.

The unit enters record pause mode.

The PLAY or the PAUSE button doesn’t work in synchronous

record pause mode.

Start playing the source.

The unit will start synchronous recording.

< During digital synchronous recording, if the input signal stops

for 5 seconds, recording will stop automatically.

< Press the STOP button to stop the recording manually.

If you press the STOP button or the PAUSE button during

recording, the synchronous recording function will be

cancelled.

The synchronous recording function automatically turns off

after the recording.

< The SYNC 1/ALL button doesn’t work during recording or in

the record pause mode.

< When SYNC ALL is selected, AUTO TRACK is always on.

Select –60, 50, 40 or 30 dB using the AUTO/MANUAL button.

< If the AUTO/MANUAL button is set to MANUAL, AUTO

TRACK (–60 dB) will be selected during synchronous

recording. The setting automatically returns to MANUAL after

the recording.

Finalize

“TOC” and the “REC” indicator blink, and the remaining

time for the finalizing operation appears in the display.

When the operation has been finished, the display returns to

the track/time display.

During finalizing, no button works.

Never turn the power off nor unplug the power cord.

Although finalized CD-R discs may be played on ordinary CD

players, remember that finalized CD-RW discs may not play

on ordinary CD players.

This section deals with the actions taken after recording.

Once finalized, CD-R discs are truly final. No more tracks can

be recorded on them. By contrast, CD-RW discs can be

“unfinalized”, and if there is space, further material can be

recorded on them.

Finalizing

As has been explained earlier, in order for a disc to become a

standard CD, it must have a Table of Contents (TOC) written

to it. This process is known as finalizing.

Load an unfinalized (recordable) disc.

Press the FINALIZE button in the stop mode.

Press the PLAY (y) button to start finalizing.

“FINALIZE” appears on the display.

To cancel the finalizing process, press the STOP button (H).

Erase or Unfinalize a CD-RW

The remaining time for the operation appears in the display.

When the operation has been finished, the display returns to

the track/time display.

During erasing/unfinalizing, no buttons will work.

Never turn the power off nor unplug the power cord.

This operation cannot be undone. If you are going to erase a

track or tracks, make sure that they are recordings that you

really want to erase.

It is possible to erase the last recorded tracks. It is not, however,

possible to erase tracks in the “middle” of the disc.

It is also possible to erase a whole disc.

Erase procedures are possible only on an unfinallized CD-RW

disc. If a CD-RW disc has been finalized, unfinalize it prior to

erasure. Remember that it is not possible to perform any erase or

unfinalize procedures on a CD-R disc.

Load a recorded CD-RW.

Press the ERASE button in the stop mode.

“UNFINALIZE” appears when a finalized disc is loaded.

“ERASE” and the last track number appear when the disc

hasn’t been finalized. Each time the ERASE button is pressed,

the display changes as follows:

“ERASE” and the number of the last track recorded on the

disc

Select this to erase the last track on the disc.

If you want to erase two or more tracks at once, press the

MUSIC SKIP button repeatedly to select the first track number

to be erased. For example, if 12 tracks have been recorded on

the disc, “ERASE 10-12” means the last 3 tracks (No.10, 11

and 12) will be erased.

This will not appear when only one track is recorded on the

disc.

ERASE DISC

Select this to erase all the tracks.

REFRESH

Select this to refresh the disc. It will take more than 40

minutes.

If a CD-RW disc has been corrupted at any point (e.g. power

has been cut off in the middle of a finalize operation, etc.),

“REFRESH” might be effective to make the disc usable again.

This operation will destroy all data on the disc.

To cancel the erasing or unfinalizing process, press the STOP

button (H
